Summary: I'm a software consultant with 10+ years of experience who can take your web or mobile project from concept to delivery. I've assisted well known global companies like Just Eat and Triumph Motorcycles, created my own commercially successful apps and have a PhD from Edinburgh University so you can rely on me to deliver high-quality solutions on schedule. I can take charge of requirements gathering, design and development for apps, web services and MVPs as well as giving recommendations on solution design, software architecture and team workflow improvements.

iOS developer looking for new projects. Have experience with both Objective-C and Swift. http://nickpetrov.weebly.com/portfolio.html Feel free to get in touch at nickiosdev+hn@gmail.com for more info.
iOS engineer with over 9 years of experience building apps from scratch + features for apps with millions of users. I am familiar with all facets of app development, but my specialty is building a great user experience. Looking for small(er) app projects and/or helping you out with difficult problems that need to be solved.
SEEKING WORK - London - Remote preferred, happy to visit you anywhere in the UK.
DevOps / Python consultant with a decade's experience building, hosting and fixing applications.
I work with engineering teams to make their products as scalable and robust as possible. AWS, Kubernetes, load testing, lambdas, CI, deploy systems, monitoring, config management, security audits, dev projects of my own - you name it I've done it.
Recent projects include:
+ Re-hosting a large microservice node.js + RethinkDB web application on Google Cloud. The resulting stack (serving a busy news site) is deployed to GKE with a set of Helm charts and a minimal amount of custom tooling for CDN & image serving. GKE has turned out to be low-maintenance and rock solid; I'll be glad to work with it again.
+ Rewriting a Python big data stack for a bioscience client. Result was a robust, scalable system deployed with Terraform/Docker to spot instances managed by AWS Batch. Benefits included better resilience, higher resource utilisation and vastly reduced cost/processing time.
+ AWS/Kubernetes/Docker deployment to support a large distributed (15 microservices + persistence layer) application. Updated a sprawling Django/Postgres app to fit modern containerised hosting, resulting in a stack that makes great use of k8s' scaling & resiliency features. Templating via Helm for multiple, namespaced stack instances & continuous integration.
+ Another AWS/k8s/Docker stack, this time with a persistence layer comprising Cassandra & Kafka with service discovery through Zookeeper. Prometheus & Grafana for monitoring.
+ Large multithreaded Python 3 application for automated crypto trading. Didn't get rich, still posting on here.
I've spent the last decade developing custom software solutions to solve business problems. I've worked for billion dollar enterprises delivering software for consumer electronics. I've led a team of developers to modernize a companies systems to make them more maintainable and quicker to iterate. I've introduced best practices such as source control, continuous integration, code reviews, and testing to improve workflow and reliability.
I can help your company develop custom software specifically designed for your needs. I also provide services to smaller business that can't justify a full time architect where I will come in as needed and help architect a system or diagnose the reliability of existing systems while providing suggestions on how to improve.
I have been working remotely most of my work history, mostly for startups and related to web based projects. 6/10 projects I have been a solo-developer, building from ground doing sysadmin to backend and frontend work, most recent work have been related to build ERP/CRM like apps within large teams.
Django and python based projects. I have been working with Django so many years that I know how to manage myself quickly to start and complete a project quickly.
# What are the most recent skills that I'm excited right now?
aiohttp. I have been working doing "real-time" apps with node.js and switching to aiohttp was a production high jump getting back to python to build these apps with aiohttp. I also have enjoyed learning Vue to make large applications, I still enjoy React however, the internals of Vue really clicks with me.
